Answer to the Town-Square Mystery: Any Bible student would know that it was Noah, not Moses, who boarded the Ark. The policeman found the stolen money in the young Bible student's pocket.

Lesson 191: The Way of the World Most of the books ever written propound a firm philosophy the philosophy of life. In this philosophy we come across many proverbs pregnant with meaning and spilling over with lofty thoughts. But, how many of us really care for these exalted thoughts? How many of us give it another thought? Each day is a new day.

If we have not been making the most of the present day, it is not an irreparable sin; but it is an irreparable sin if you don't change now. It is wrong if you don't take hold of this present day and move forward and make yourself a better person than what you were yesterday. So let's all be seen up and doing.

Carpe Diem. What is there now is yours; tomorrow is a big maybe. Carpe diem. Today, we will take a look at a poem written by Ella Wheeler Wilcox. If you consider the sage advice right, please adopt it into your life and make your life happier and more worthwhile. The Way of the World Laugh and the world laughs with you; Weep and you weep alone This grand earth must borrow it mirth, It has troubles enough of its own.

Sing and the hills will answer, Sigh, it is lost on the air, The echoes bound to a joyful sound But shrink from voicing care. Be glad and your friends are many; Be sad and you lose them all, There are none to decline your nectared wine, But alone we must drink life's gall. There is room in the halls of pleasure For a long and lordly train, But one by one we must all file out Through the narrow aisles of pain.

Feast and your halls are crowded, Fast and the world goes by, Succeed and give, `twill help you live But no one can help you die. Rejoice and men will seek you, Grieve and they turn to go; They want full measure of all your pleasure, But they do not want your woe! Humour In Life: Telephone rings. Hello. Hello that you Ricky? Yes, this is Ricky. It doesn't sound like Ricky? Well, this is Ricky all right.

You're positive it's Ricky? Ab-so-lutley. Well, listen, Ricky, this is Ishdeep. Can you lend me 500 tomans? When Ricky comes in I'll tell him you called.
